Are there any local facilities at Nozstock Festival?
Aside from a variety of food, drinks and various handy consumables to buy on site, the nearest town of Bromyard hosts a variety of shops to meet most needs. This year we bring you the Nozstock Supermarche, so you need never leave the confines of the site for the real world! However, if you’re feeling nosy, we encourage visitors to use the local shops, where possible, and help benefit the local community. Vegans can get basic commodities as well as loads of treats and the local bakeries are always worth a visit, but check out The Grind Café on site for all your cake needs.
